Welcome to 2012 and a new look Pare Publisher.
We have made quite a few changes going into this year.
The Pare Publisher has been running for almost five years now and 1500 copies are delivered each month. I started it in April 2007 and it was only a single A4 sheet. My daughter Anita took over the running of it in 2009 and has continued to develop it as well as create the Pare Publisher website. Check out the new look website – www.parepublisher.co.nz.
Besides this Anita has a full time job, a part time company and two young children so there are now a few of us now stepping in to help out. There was the suggestion to drop the publishing back to bi-monthly however with that suggestion we received feedback that it was not a good idea at all! People preferred to have it delivered monthly. Kim Ward who established and runs our Pare email system has been instrumental in helping with solutions to this. Kim and I will now be sharing the role of editing the Pare Publisher. Anita will still design, do the layout and coordinate the Pare Publisher. Savannah Carter-Green will be helping us to get more advertising on board and we still have our local trusty deliverers who ensure it gets to your letterbox.

The Pare Publisher relies on advertising to keep it going and we thank those of you who consistently support it. If you have a business and would like to advertise, we welcome your contribution as it all goes to helping people in our community stay in touch with what is happening. If you would like to advertise, please contact Savannah Carter-Green or Anita Dobson. Check out our new advertising rates. We are sure you will find them very competitive.
Until next month
